Bots can’t be held accountable

Without being too much of a downer, neither can judges in most places. Source: personal experience in a country with "telephone law".

Iran and Russia also had reasonable laws once. Then things changed. The problem is, you can't delete your old chats from the %EU_NSA_analogue%'s servers once they get there. The funniest part is, you might think that you are safe because that one sussy message was posted so long ago. Well, statutes of limitations are changed/ignored just as easily as any other law.

OCR of every single image on my computer so I can copy and paste text from anything, all running locally on the NPU on my M1 chip

This functionality is baked into Windows since 10. But for some reason you need a third party program to expose it.

To be fair, finding a book that is not raw GPT output on Amazon will be a Herculean task very soon (if not already).

One "feature" of an aggressively simplistic design is that it's relatively easy to customize. Here is my personal take (I use stylus extension for firefox to inject the css) https://gist.github.com/Angelore/77999cc2152dfbcd38f18ba6a7a...

Maybe the way to go forward would be something in the vein of a book club? Delegating such a monstrous task to one person will just bury them in the sea of information, so parallelization looks like a good compromise (meet up once a week/month and share worthwhile books you have found).

Unfortunately, generation of garbage information can still far outpace such a system with few nodes...

In case with SD, you can download every version yourself. The main code is in git (you can go back to any point), and weights are versioned, I have every version saved, for example.

What are the odds that such an image (Dyson sphere for example) would actually be released? It's not like we have a raw feed from the Webb. On the other hand, suppressing it doesn't make much sense either, since the age of such an object would only indicate that something was, rather than is.

I don't think donating to a private yet government funded, nontransparent and unaccountable organization is a good idea. In fact, I don't think that having such an organization is a good idea at all.

Well that's because the more people use the thing, the easier it is to find solutions for issues with said thing. Looking up a way to do routing in react is way easier than looking it up for a framework with a 100 users.

Issues are also being found way faster simply due to a bigger user base.

They are not protecting you from bad thoughts. They are protecting themselves from lawsuits. Moderating all this content is not free. If google was not under risk of losing money by not doing this, they would have done nothing.

This is an interesting talk, thank you. What frightens me, is that the same process could be happening in other fields, for example, medicine. I really hope we won't forget how to create antibiotics one day.

This doesn't really matter since not only humans are affected. The most obvious example is the destruction of any semiconductors, which along with the destruction of the environment, will send the remaining humans into the bronze age at best.

Do you have Intel graphics in there by any chance? I've had the brightness issue on xps 15, and it turned out that the Intel drivers were responsible.
